The old Yorick subject post.

Yes yes people I know this is a really REALLY _ OLD_ subject that people have made many countless posts on this subject from changing his Ability Kit, giving him & his ghouls a new models & finally giving him more skins, but still we have people talking & discussing about the problems & things Riot can (or could do) for: , The Gravedigger. I don't remember myself if I ever made my own post on this subject so here it is.

On a personal note for myself I do feel like Yorick is a really outdated Champion in Riot's Champion roaster, not just in his design or his kit but his entire gameplay is pretty.......weak. By that I mean when I play Yorick I don't feel as a major or even a decent member of the team wither I play Yorick Top, Jungle or whatever, on a different note on his kit it feels pretty weird like its all over the place it's mainly the concept that Yorick is suppose to be a Pet-Class Champion being able to control the fight with his Ghouls.......but these ghouls are brain dead (no pun intended).

Seriously these Ghouls are basiclly mindless drones that when you summon them they will either attack & kill minions or just run off chasing an enemy Champion when you need them to help push, also they seem to chase enemy Champions who can easily out run them wasting their duration or they simply walk into the enemies attacks & die just like that. If Riot does get around in updating Yorick they should work on making these Ghouls either to 2 things: 1: allow the Player to be able to control them like how Annie can control Tibbers. 2: give the Ghouls very good A.I that have them prioritize 1 object from another (although being able to control them sounds easier & better).

Now on the topic of changing Yorick Ability Kit I think all it really needs are a few Tweaks & slight changes, for example when ever Yorick has summoned a Ghoul it should have its own little Ability on a Recast. For example: Yoricks W-Ability: Omen of Pestilence. Effect: This Ability has you summon a Ghoul that deals Magic Damage on the spot where its summoned then it has a very small A.O.E Slow, this Slow Aura can be easily escaped from & the damage is pretty weak from Start to Late game since people will be mainly building Attack Damage items for Yorick since his Q & E scale of them......making this a pretty "lame" Ability only to be used for the sudden burst of damage & the minor Slow.

HOWEVER!!!!!!!! If this Ability had a Recast on it with a low Cool Down then we may have something here, for example when you summon the Pestilence Ghoul it will do it's A.O.E damage then have it's aura active, then it can have a Recast that would allow it to make another A.O.E explosion in its Aura's radius dealing its current damage output again to all enemies within the explosion & if an enemy is damaged from this Recast that enemy would receive either a stronger Slow or have a short Stun apply to them. Now if this Ability had this Recast I think it would help Yorick by keeping the pressure on his Lane Opponent with consent harassment, or help him clear Minion Waves faster (possibly be a good Jungle Camp clear) & allow Yorick to be a bigger threat in Team Fights especially if the Ghouls are able to be controlled.

[want me to list the Recast on the other 2 Ghouls them message me down bellow or share your own Recast ideas]

On the same note about discussing the Ghouls why does the Omen of Famine damage scale of AD if it deals Magic Damage? This is just a small detail that has always made me think "Why isn't this scaled of AP?", Riot should change it so it can allow Players to play either a full AD or AP build with Yorick. Since the Ghouls owns Attack Damage scale of Yorick's own Attack Damage why not have the E Ability scale off AP, that will open up a whole new build potential for Yorick like being able to build Items that have Spell Vamp which could help Yorick's survivability a little better.

Full AD Yorick Build: Focus on his Auto-Attacks & his Q-Ability while also increasing his Ghouls own Attack Damage. Full AP Yorick Build: Focus on amping the W & E Abilities allowing them to take advantage of AP Items like: , , , , & for examples.

As for Yorick's Passive or his Ultimate Ability I don't really see any need to change them....actually as a little gimmick that Riot could add to the Omen of Death they can make it that it has 2 different uses: 1st Use: while the Revenant is alive Yorick can recast the Ability to sacrifice it to Heal the Champion its mimicking. Now if the Player does use the Recast on themselves then the Ability will be Refreshed but the player can use it on them self for a set duration, but if the Player uses it on an allied Champion then the Recast goes on it's original Cool Down. this will allow Yorick to Heal his/her teammates or use it as it's original short-term Revive. 2nd Use: well it's basically where you save your the Recast for either yourself or your Teams Key Player.

If Riot made this little Change to Yorick's Ult I think it would allow him to make powerful plays like when the enemy thinks they got your Key Player in the corner the Recast can Change that & then BAMM Yorick can use his Ult on another Target to add more pressure.

Well LOL Community thats what I got to say about Yorick & what I think Riot could possibly do for Yorick, If you have any Questions for me please leave them in the Commit & I will try to answer them as best as I can or you have anything you want to expand on this then please leave a Commit I look forward to what you have to say on this Subject.
